    (Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2006-03-27) CAIXETA, Carlos Roberto; BRASIL, Virginia Visconde; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1940761888797180
    Transport accidents are currently one of the world s main public health problems. The aim of this investigation is to describe the profile of transport injury victims attended at Hospital de Urgências de Goiânia (HUGO) and of victims who deceased in these accidents, with age 15 to 24 years, residents in Goiânia, Goiás - Brazil. It also describes the circumstances involved in these accidents. This descriptive transversal study was carried out in the city of Goiânia from August 2005 to August 2006 with systematic sampling, considering the day of the week and the time of the day. At that period were interviewed 301 victims attended at HUGO, the main Emergency Service Center of the city, and the family of 62 cases of death occurred in the municipality. The data were treated by descriptive statistics. Most victims attended at HUGO and most of those who died were male, mean age 19.94 ± 2.73 years. The main transport used by the victims attended at HUGO was the motorcycle (67.33%), followed by the bicycle (16.67%). The motorcycle was the most used by fatal victims (66.67%) as well. The accidents usually occurred at night, especially around 6 pm to 9 pm and at weekends (fridays and sundays). The victims were generally on the way to do physical, sportive, school, leisure or entertaining activities at that time. Those who were doing paid work had the accident between 6 am and 9 am. Suspicion of alcohol use was confirmed in 15.16% of the cases attended at HUGO and by 26.31% of the family of fatal victims. The victims attended at HUGO were the drivers in 77.11% of the motorcycle accidents and 92.00% of bicycle accidents, as well as in 76.92% of the fatal victims. There were victims under 18 years of age identified as drivers of automobiles and motorcycles. In proportion (p<0.05), more motorcyclists (66.48%) believed that there was imprudence/ negligence than the cyclists (47.72%) attended at HUGO. Security equipment was not used by 8.58% of motorcyclists, by 95.45% of cyclists attended at HUGO and by 12.5% of the motorcyclists who died. The safety belt was not used by 50.00% of the attended at HUGO and by 60.00% of who died. The results indicate a need for a differentiated look at motorcyclists, which justifies a specific approach to this group, as well as measures of inspection, giving priority to the periods of night and weekends. The service of attending victims must be planned, adjusting the amount of human, material and equipment resources, and the seasonality of accidents. The epidemiologic profile of the victims provides important information for administrators to implement politics of promoting health and preventing injury transport, which takes intersectional and multiprofessional actions to confront the problem.

    Hemodialysis is the most frequently renal substitutive therapy used by patients with chronic renal failure. However, continuation with this kind of treatment had demonstrated to provoke disarranging and changes on daily routine, affecting patient s quality of life. Present study main objective was evaluate the quality of life in chronic renal failure patients receiving hemodialysis treatment, by means of the instrument called Kidney Disease and Quality of Life Short Form (KDQOL-SF). Were interviewed 72 chronic kidney failure patients under hemodialysis treatment in Goiânia / GO, Brazil. For statistical data analysis, a significance level of 5% and a 95% of confidence interval were used. The majority of patients are male, with mean age of 51.1 ± 16,6 years (20 to 80 yr), catholics, and they just know how to read and write as education level. The time of hemodialysis treatment was 12 - 60 months for most of them, as well as the family income is 01 or 02 salaries. The majority doesn t work and live with their family or spouse. The results evidenced that the quality of life of chronic renal failure patients receiving hemodialysis treatment is impaired in some aspects. The Dimensions Physical Role, Work Status, Burden of Kidney Disease and Emotional Role had the lowest scores (20.49, 22.2, 34.55, 36,57 respectively). The highest values were obtained in the Dimensions Dialysis Staff Encouragement (88.37), Quality of Social Interaction (80.83), Patient Satisfaction (80.09), Sexual Function (73.86) and Cognitive Function (80.74). The individual s perception in each Dimension was significantly interfered by advanced age, gender, time of treatment, family support, religious choices, level of instruction and by work.

    Satisfação no trabalho de docentes de uma instituição pública de ensino superior : reflexos na qualidade de vida
    (Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2011-04-07) FERREIRA, Ana Cássia Mendes; BRASIL, Virginia Visconde; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1940761888797180
    Job satisfaction has been identified as a component of life satisfaction and it is an emotional state resulting from the professional interaction, personal characteristics, values and expectations about the environment and organization of work and can influence quality of life. The objective was to analyze job satisfaction and quality of life reflections of public university professors of the health area. A transversal, descriptive and exploratory study was conducted with public university professors of the health area in the city of Goiânia, Goiás - Brazil. Data collection was performed using the Medical Outcomes Study Questionnaire 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and the Job Satisfaction Questionnaire (S20/23). To analyze the data were used the simple descriptive analysis, the Pearson Chi-square test and Pearson Correlation Coefficient. It was interviewed 108 professors, mostly women (68.5%), married (69.4%), with children (70.4%) and average age of 44.24 ± 9.3 years. The global satisfaction mean was 3.62 (five-point scale), and the average factor "Hierarchical Relation Satisfaction", "Work Environment Satisfaction and "Work Intrinsic Satisfaction and professional growth opportunities" were 3.66, 3.30, and 3.99, respectively. Among the items, stood out "work environment and physical space" with the lowest degree of satisfaction, and "work as contributing factor" to the greatest degree. The partial satisfaction / indifference to the work indicated by the professors indicate the need for an awakening of the institution and the need to conduct further research directed towards the subject. Selecting the entire faculty from two academic units, n = 66, most women (95.5%), married (66.7%), with children (63.6%), average age 43.64 ± 9.58 years, the global satisfaction mean was 3.64 and the factors average ranged between 3.45 and 3.93. In evaluation of the quality of life on this group, the scores of each domain ranged from 51.53 (Vitality) to 83.00 (Physical Functioning). The lowest score was mainly due to the overload of activities and fatigue reported by professors, especially those with a higher degree. The greater satisfaction was reported by the professors in the S20/23 item work as a contributing factor" and the biggest complaint was the "environment and physical space of work" item. The S20/23 factor "Work Intrinsic Satisfaction and professional growth opportunities" showed positive correlation with the domains " Role Limitations because of Physical Health Problems", " Social Functioning" and " Role Limitations because of Emotional Problems" of SF-36. We conclude that professors in these two units value their work as a contributing factor, because they are allowed to do things that they want and stand out. The dissatisfaction reinforces the need to search at the institution to identify what can be done to minimize this dissatisfaction. The equal distribution of activities may be an alternative to optimize the work of the group studied. The job satisfaction reflected in quality of life which, in turn, has an impact on job satisfaction again, consisting in a joint responsibility of managers and teachers.

    Avaliação da qualidade de vida de portadores de marcapasso cardíaco artificial em Goiânia, Goiás
    (Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2010-04-14) ZATTA, Laidilce Teles; BRASIL, Virginia Visconde; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1940761888797180
    Health related quality of life includes social, emotional and physical well-being of individuals, the impact of some treatments used to control health problems and the individual's ability to lead his own life. One of these treatments currently used is a device called artificial pacemaker, and patients have reported changes in daily life after implantation, which may influence the quality of their lives. It is a descriptive exploratory study that aimed to evaluate the quality of life of cardiac pacemakers patients using a generic instrument- SF-36 ® (Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey) and other specific instrument - AQUAREL (Assessment of Quality of Life and Related Events). We interviewed 84 patients with permanent pacemaker after six or more months of implantation, and used two instruments to assess quality of life: SF-36 and AQUAREL. Respondents had an average age 59.9 years, 58.3% were female, catholic (70.2%), had completed elementary school (81%). They self-reported themselves as white (59.5%), they had a steady partner (69%) and monthly family income below two minimum wages (51.3%). The implantation time varied between one and 28 years (median three years), the principal cause was the Chagas disease (76.2%), 73.8% were with the first generator, the predominant type of stimulation was DDDR (67,9%) and they were functional class I (57.1%). The median scores for SF-36 dimensions were higher in Social Functioning (100.00) and Mental Health (68.00) dimensions; the lowest scores were obtained in Role Limitations Resulting from Physical Health (00.00) and Role Limitations Resulting from Emotional Problems (33.33) dimensions. The median scores of AQUAREL were 81.25 for Chest Discomfort, Arrhythmias (80.00) and 71.43 for Dyspnea. Cronbach's Alpha ranged between 0.916 and 0.688 for SF-36 dimensions and between 0.852 and 0.693 for AQUAREL, indicating good reliability of the instruments. It was observed that the perception of individuals facing the aspects analyzed in each dimension of SF-36 and AQUAREL is not homogeneous, being influenced by religion, gender, age, race, presence of children, work, income level, education, number of implants and the reason of the implant. The lower scores indicate which aspects need attention from the health team to contribute to the quality of life of these patients.
